My Makerlog extension is now available on Firefox!

Hi Makers, A while ago I released Tasklog, a browser extension to log task on ML through your browser's toolbar. Since then a lot people have request a Firefox version. So I finally sat down this month and updated it to support Firefox. I was also able to add new feature which let's you log task by pressing ALT + P.

Firefox version- https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tasklog-for-makerlog

Chrome version- https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tasklog-for-makerlog/ejdaemlhdmoekfkhbjkekgedjhlhhapl?hl=en

Thanks :)

Dude this is awesome, got any suggestions for improving my extension building? I'm working on it right now and as far as I'm concerned its just basic web stack.

@bryceroars Extensions are basic web stack and in most of the cases they are fine like that. If you want a great template/cli-tool then please look into @neeadev's extension-cli(https://github.com/MobileFirstLLC/extension-cli). That's what Tasklog uses and all my future extensions will.

Yooo, this is super nice, will be using! Two questions/requests:

  1. It'd be cool if it auto-focuses the task input when you click on the extension
  2. Any reason it requires the "access browser tabs" and "access your data for all websites" permissions? From what I can see, all the functionality is just within the extension popup window when you click on it, right?

@ethan +1 on the auto-focusing on the task input.

@bryceroars It uses content script. When you press ALT + P it opens a pop-up in the site itself. It is open sourced- https://github.com/zicsus/tasklog

Looks cool! I'm having a difficulty to use it. After installing on Chrome browser it prompts for authenticating although I'm already authenticated on Makerlog. I use Twitter to sign in so I dont know what to input to authenticate ^_^'

@JohnitoChaos It only supports username password login for now. In the future I or somebody might add oAuth. It is open sourced BTW https://github.com/zicsus/tasklog

@zicsus Got you. I'm on the way to integrate passport http://www.passportjs.org/packages/passport-twitter/ with my Express backend API. It handles oAuth flow. Might potentially work for you as well
